From the day we are born, we are told that we must be perfect. We are told that we should not make mistakes. We must excel in knowledge, looks, social status, and let's not forget making money. Some will tell us that we are born sinners and aren't perfect like God. We are told it is a sin not to try our very best to be perfect. More pressure is put on people for Hell awaits those who fail. Like good little children, we do our best to be right. We are taught to value being right so strong that to fail, lose, make a mistake, or simply be wrong is unthinkable. Beliefs which we have accepted can not be questioned. We will fight, scream, and kick before we let someone tell us we are wrong. Doesn't matter if what we believe doesn't make sense. It's about being wrong. There are other things we must be perfect with. Everyone has to be a beautiful runway model or a handsome soap opera star. People starve themselves in hopes of the perfection they will never find. There is social status. Everyone wants to be the most popular. We are nothing unless we make lots of money. How can we be perfect unless we are loaded and everyone envies us? With all this perfection that we are brainwashed into believing,there is a second step. That's BLAME! I find it funny that whenever something happens, the first thing we all do is look for someone to blame. Just watch all those pointing fingers. The very worst is the reason we can't meet all those perfection standards. We are to blame. It's no wonder we live in a society where most people lie, cheat or steal. So much pressure to become something that doesn't exist!!! So let's forget all that we have learned and know. We choose what we deem important in this world. Let's not let others decide our path in life. How can we ever be happy being led around by anyone? We are meant to think!! We are meant to stand on our own two feet!! We are meant to choose and learn!! First let's look at what God is doing with this world. If we see that, it will make our choosing easier. Life is the education of God's children. God has already created perfection That's all of us!!! God is teaching us wisdom. Mistakes, problems, being wrong, drama, are all part of the perfection of becoming wise. So next time you see a person really screwing up, give them a hug, knowing that they are learning wisdom and that none of us can escape this process of learning. God also has set the parameters of our life. I will and can never be a handsome soap opera star. No matter what I do, I will never be that physically handsome. Since I'm not handsome, I am not the most socially popular guy in the world. Does this mean I'm not perfect? NO! I am perfect for the people who are to be in my life. I have just the right knowledge, character, and looks. So anytime you think looks make the difference and you wear yourself out trying to be something your not, think of all the time and effort you are going to waste. So let's choose a path. Let me tell you mine. My looks are perfect for my tasks in life no need to change. I strive to acquire knowledge because I know God wants me to learn. I question everything for real truth will never change. Prove me wrong or challenge me. I love you for that. The more wrong I find myself; the more right I will learn from the mistakes. I choose to give love and kindness to everyone I meet. I help those I can and encourage those I can't. I don't blame anyone for results from mistakes are what count. If I can share a little of my knowledge with others and maybe learn something along the way, I'm happy. I'm not going to let drama bother me for learning and resolution always comes with it. As for money, I try to earn as much as I can to do good deeds with it. Money holds no status with me nor will I ever have diamonds, jewels, or other frills. There are much better uses for money such as helping others. So there you have it. I challenge everyone of you to wipe your slate clean. Stop and plan your path in life. The world doesn't need any more glitter and gold. The world needs that which is special and perfect about you!!!! Just as you are!!! CHOOSE!!! It's so easy to choose HAPPINESS!!!!

..This is nice.. happiness is actually a choice made by anybody.. If we chose to be happy then we will be but if we want to be alone and be overcome by our challenges in life, then we will really become sad.. We have to enjoy our moment here on earth.. Life is just once.. Although my belief that life is only once is not favorable to those who believe in reincarnation and I don't like to refute with them since they are also entitled to what they believe.. No matter what we believe anyway, we have to make our life meaningful.. We will not expect that all the people we meet in this world will be for a lifetime.. so we have to treasure every moment that we spend with our loved ones..

..Nobody is perfect but we can chose to do the right things.. everybody has weaknesses and sometimes, what we assume to be good appears bad to others.. we cannot please everybody.. but we can chose not to commit mistakes intentionally..

Listen to the advice of others but we must choose our own path. Life's lessons are best learned that way. By thinking and planning, choice results are better. Seems too many people are just reacting to life. Thanks for all your great comments. Happiness is indeed no more than a choice. I hope everyone chooses that one. Thanks again!!!

We are not perfect because the Creator didnt want anyone to be anwhere close to Him in terms of perfection. He wanted no competetion. He wanted to rule over others as the absolute power.. He we were perfect, then who will remember Him?

Are you so sure that we aren't perfect??? Learning wisdom takes some bad choices to understand what it all means.It depends on how one defines perfect doesn't it? As far as ruling and absolute power, this is only what man wants. True wisdom outgrows such petty things. As far as being remembered, aren't the greatest loves in your life remembered the most?????? God is unconditional love. You will never forget. In order to really UNDERSTAND God and what is really going on, you must think beyond what man is teaching you. Thanks for your comments!!!
